Stop Making Buyers Tilt Their Heads: Fixing Sideways Scanned Real Estate Documents
Sideways scanned title deeds and upside-down floor plans look amateurish. Here is how fixing page orientation permanently builds buyer confidence and speeds up property closings.
"David, I am trying to review the title deed and floor plans on my desktop, but Page 3 is upside down and Page 5 is sideways. Can you re-send a clean copy?"

Feeder scanners at title offices frequently scan wide landscape floor plans in portrait orientation, outputting a document where half the pages are oriented incorrectly.
Using CanvasConvert's in-browser page rotator allows you to adjust page viewports permanently in seconds, giving your buyers a flawless viewing experience.
Rotate individual or all PDF pages by 90°, 180°, or 270° permanently in your browser.
